the old one was simply
plastic and this is where it broke, in the center where the motor shaft grips it. this one should be much stronger i would think.
it went on easy enough and motor and pump snapped back in without a hitch.

tried to upload a video i took with
my digital camera but it would not go here! anyone have any tips on how to do this?
but anyway, this is a great washer and i'm really lucky to have found it in the trash and only have to spend 20 bucks fixing it!

The '89 DD I had was a neutral drain. If you messed with it during the drain cycle (e.g., pull the knob out and push it back in), you could make it spin with the water, although it didn't like it at all. I had a power hit once when it had just started draining, and when the power came back on, it ran for a few seconds and then tripped the breaker.

Probably some dealer or repair man just told the people who had this washer "Oh, that problem is not fixable, you need a new washer". Or they quoted them a repair price of $400.00 or so forcing them into a new machine. I heard this speech when my agitator dogs gave out. I repaired it myself with a $25.00 agitator overhaul kit and about 20 minutes of my time.
